Cracked 1ghz TiBook

[physicsnerd]

I have a crack that has formed on the case of my 1ghz Tibook. It’s just above the escape key, and travels down case to the modem port. The crack line runs on top of the hinge. I suspect that it’s a defect in the metal. I didn’t drop it, and I’m very careful with my Tibook. In fact it hasn’t left my desk in weeks.

I’m going to take it to my local apple store (Indianapolis) and have them fix it under apple care. I’m looking for other people who have had cracks around the hinge to backup my claims that I didn't abuse my laptop and that this is just a random defect. I’ve found a couple of people on the net who have had identical cracks

But, I’d like to have a few more reports of people with the same problem if possible. Any comments and suggestions are always welcome.

Thanks,
